A report that came out last night shocked the hockey world. Owner of the New York Rangers James Dolan has vetoed a trades this season on his team's behalf for a ridiculous reason.

A new report that came in from NHL insider Darren Dreger confirmed that the New York Rangers would like to add a center to help them contend. However, Dreger went on to say that a ridiculous limitation was set by owner James Dolan on the Rangers front office. According to Dreger, the Rangers will not be moving their First-Round pick due to a directive from James Dolan.

Dolan the owner of The Sphere where the draft will be held wants his team to be a part of the First Round that night. As a result, the Rangers will need to dangle their 2025 pick instead.

Regardless of whether or not their 2024 First Round pick is available the Rangers still need a number two center. With Filip Chytil out for the remainder of the season, the need only increases.

With the 2025 NHL Draft looking to be a strong one from early viewings the picks could be valuable. However, the Rangers will likely need to give up more due to the unknowns of a draft a year out.

Unless James Dolan changes his tune Rangers fans might not want to get their hopes up for a major acquisition at the trade deadline this season.
